Fountains and Pines have always been the most popular of Respighi’s compositions. Audiences lap them up, even if some critics have been rather sniffy about their picture-postcard qualities in depicting the Eternal City. ‘Respighi is a slick manipulator of the orchestra,’ reported Gramophone on the first recording of Fountains(7/28). ‘He scarcely ev...
No disc quite conjures up raw excitement in such vivid detail as Arturo Toscanini’s with the NBC SO. It’s a fierce, dry recording, made in Carnegie Hall, and Toscanini and his engineers don’t stint on the decibels. The sound can be congested and it’s a punchy, aggressive reading to boot, which can weary the ears. Toscanini doesn’t hang around, so t...
British orchestras have scored a number of successes in Respighi’s double bill. There’s a touch of Hollywood Technicolor in Decca’s Phase 4 recording of Charles Munchand the New Philharmonia – glossy strings, woodwinds spread across the stereo spectrum, even a flock of antiphonal nightingales in the Janiculum! It sounds gaudy, although Munch’s dire...
It’s good to see not one but two Santa Cecilia recordings in the catalogue. The opening of Daniele Gatti’s 1996 Fountains (originally on Conifer) is akin to water torture – the Valle Giulia flowing at a trickle – but the Triton horns get stuck in and the organ makes its presence felt in Trevi. Gatti’s pacing in Pines tends to be too slow. Antonio P...
Ernest Ansermet’s 1963 account with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande (Decca, 1/65) suffers a typically acidic oboe but the playing is adroit and Decca’s engineers capture the climaxes well. The Berlin Philharmonic perform impressively but Herbert von Karajan’s poker-faced direction sucks any joy out of these scores. It’s technically superb, refin...
While it’s tempting to award the laurels to the ‘home team’ of Antonio Pappano and his Santa Cecilia musicians, who have this music in their DNA, it’s Fritz Reiner and his Chicago forces who are triumphant. This is a recording that has squared up to many challengers in its 60‑plus year reign, but it still firmly swats away the competition and shoul...
